SAMPLE DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS (DKA) CLINICAL ORDER SET Adult
SAMPLE DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS (DKA)
CLINICAL ORDER SET
Addressograph
Adult
Patient population
• Patient has DKA
– For example blood glucose (BG) is > 14 mmol/L, anion gap is > 12, carbon dioxide < 18 and positive serum or urine ketones
Investigations
Initial
• Hematology profile, sodium, potassium, chloride, carbon dioxide total, creatinine, random glucose
• Hemoglobin A1C
¨ Urine macroscopic
¨ Arterial BG for pH (recommended if carbon dioxide is < 12) OR ¨ Venous blood gases
¨ Serum ketones ¨ Phosphorous ¨ Lactate ¨ Troponin
¨ Serum hCG
¨ Blood culture and sensitivity
¨ Urine culture and sensitivity
¨ Urine drug screen __________________________________
¨ ECG
¨ Chest x-ray
¨ Other: _____________________________________________
Subsequent Investigations
¨ Sodium, potassium, chloride, carbon dioxide total, creatinine q2h x _____ h or until BG is < 14 mmol/L
• Bedside Blood Glucose (BBGM) q1h x _____ h or until blood glucose is < 14 mmol/L, then BBGM q _____ h
• Notify physician managing DKA if:
– Glucose less than 14 mmol/L
– Glucose does not decrease by 6 mmol/L in the first 2 hours of IV insulin therapy
– Glucose increases from one test to the next
– Anion gap has normalized
IV Fluids
Bolus
• 0.9% sodium 1 L over ________ hours (30 min to 2 hours depending on degree of shock)
¨ Repeat 0.9% sodium chloride 1,000 mL bolus x _____ over _____ hour(s) (until patient is euvolemic)

Maintenance
• Start after all boluses have been administered (once patient is euvolemic)
Patient’s corrected sodium: current sodium + [0.3 x ( current glucose - 5)] = _____________ mmol/L
¨ Corrected sodium greater than 140 mmol/L then 0.45% sodium chloride at ____________ (100 to 500 mL/h) to match urine output
¨ Corrected sodium less than or equal to 140 mmol/L: then 0.9% sodium chloride at ____________ (100 to 500 mL/h) to match urine output
• W
hen BBGM is < 14 mmol/L change maintenance fluids to D5 in 0.45% sodium chloride at ____________ mL/h (suggest 100 to 200 mL/h)
Electrolyte Replacement Therapy
• Initial potassium replacement added to IV fluids, if IV fluid rate is less than or equal to 1000 cc/hr, and if passing urine
¨ potassium greater than 5.0 mmol/L: no replacement, continue q2h monitoring
¨ potassium 4.1 to 5.0 mmol/L: administer KCl 20 mmol/L IV added to maintenance fluids, reassess in 2 hours
¨ potassium 3.3 – 4.0 mmol/L: consider cardiac monitoring and administer: KCl 40 mmol/L added to maintenance fluids, reassess in 2 hours
¨ potassium less than 3.3 mmol/L: place on cardiac monitor and administer: KCl 10 mmol in 100 mL minibag over 30 minutes x 2;
reassess after 2nd infusion (and hold IV insulin)
• Routine replacement of bicarbonate and phosphorus not recommended
• Subsequent potassium replacement is individualized according to patient response
Insulin
• E nsure potassium over 3.3 mmol/L before starting insulin
• Insulin regular IV infusion (e.g. 50 units in 250 mL 0.9% sodium chloride for 0.2 units/mL) at _____ u/hr (suggest 0.1 units/kg/h)
• Subcutaneous insulin – Adult Inpatient Acute Clinical Order Set- MRP to complete; to be used once anion gap is normalized and
patient tolerating diet; administer basal subcutaneous insulin at least 2 hours before insulin infusion discontinued
